Daily delight


Each train station along my route to work features a little artwork. This guy never fails to make me smile, especially on a beautiful autumn day like this.

He makes me smile, too, and autumn looks gorgeous where you live! :)

It really is beautiful here, now that temps have gotten low enough to make the leaves turn. Lots of red maples.

Sadly, we're already past that stage and plunged in the muddy state between autumn and winter where it always seems to rain. I really hope temperatures will drop low enough for snow this year! We're all so tired of this indecisive weather!

That is SO cool, that they have these works of art at every stop! It would be amusing to refer to one's stops by the artwork instead of by their "proper names":

"Don't you get off at the "high wire bicyclist stop?"

"No. I'm the stop after: "martial artist on a skateboard stop."

Wouldn't that be funny? There's a city ordinance that requires new public buildings to install at least one piece of public art. So there are those of us who will give directions by saying, "Turn left at the Face Fountain and head for Neptune, and if you get to the Walking Cat, you've gone too far."

I love public art.

I do too! We have our fair share around here.

That is utterly charming! What a great idea - to give commuters something something so delightful to look forward to. I suppose someone spent quite a few years having to stare up at nothing during his or her way to work, so they decided to do something about it when they had the authority.

*grin* I see it and hear the Wicked Witch theme from Wizard of Oz…
